Task: Describe the difference between hailing a taxi and booking a ride on an app.


assistant
Hailing a taxi is the traditional way of getting a ride, which involves raising your arm on the street and waiting for an available taxi to pull over. Booking a ride through an app is a more modern way that involves using a mobile application to find a nearby driver and book a ride. The booking method is more convenient and efficient than hailing a taxi as it allows you to enter your desired pickup and drop off location, choose a vehicle type, and pay in advance.
